"How can they license people to drive, and require degrees for most professions, and not require formal training to become a parent? Parenting is one of those few occupations where we are constantly forced to learn 'on the job.' This book presents extraordinary wisdom from ordinary parents who, like you, have had to learn on the job. These stories and insights come from a diverse group of adults, representing a cross-section of American moms and dads. From a mother of a teenage son, we learn how to correct years of enabling. From parents who have lost a son in a military accident, we learn how to go on. From a husband who discovers his wife has put their daughter's jeans in the freezer, we learn to find humor in those crazy moments of parenting. In each case, these men and women come out wiser--offering us all lessons on this difficult, funny, and taxing enterprise of child rearing"--Back cover.
